They ARE available in 185/65 (OE size) and in the 5% taller 185/70. The best deal I could find on the taller size is $19.71 more than the OE size, an extended difference of $78.84. Yikes! So, long story short, I ordered OE size Cooper CS3 tires for $63 each, minus a $40 discount, with free shipping, and will get a $50 rebate. $162 for 4 new tires delivered to my door? Yes please! That's $40.50 each. I'll weigh them before installation and probably do the mounting myself and probably even balance with beads (maybe airsoft pellets). I'll post details to my thread when they arrive. |
Nice! I actually ended up getting all four wheels and tires that i'm using currently for $50. They looked about a year old but the tread maybe had 50 miles on them so I was like hell why not. Only had to drive about a mile to get them too. Figure they are kinda ****ty but i'll duke it out until I run through them.
